A downloadable game

Galaxida is a short, randomly-generated metroidvania where you, an astronaut trapped as an exotic zoo animal in an alien spaceship, have to escape. Explore each corner of the spaceship to look for items that will help you get through tight spaces, climb up walls, or deflect enemy attacks. Defeat alien guards and pick up their weapons along the way that will make you stronger. When you think you're ready, find the door to the bridge, take out the captain, and fly back home to Earth!

I made this game in my freshman year of high school as part of a project for my programming class. It's a pretty big milestone and something I'm very proud of, but don't expect too much polish.

Install instructions

Extract the zip file, open the folder, and run Galaxida.bat. Your version of Windows might flag this batch file as a potential security issue. If so, just run runnable.jar (the camera will be a little messed up; this is due to an update to Java released long after the game was developed. The batch file instructs your computer to run the jar on an older version of Java).
